MIG/MAG welding (option)
Simultaneous TIG and MIG/MAG welding is not possible
5.9.1 TRITON
260
Always put down welding torch when insulated.
In MIG/MAG welding, only the following operating and display elements on the welding
machine are active:
•
Digital display (chap.3, D1),
•
Welding voltage / welding current display changeover switch (chap.3, C1),
•
Characteristics changeover switch (chap. 2, G2) on the rear of the welding machine:
Characteristic 1:
0.8-1.0 MIG/MAG GMAW (welding with steel wire),
Characteristic 2:
0.9-1.2 FCAW (welding with solid/cored wire) and
•
Dynamic correction / choke effect rotary switch (chap.3, B2).
5.9.1.1 Supply to the wire feed unit
•
Insert the welding current plug of the WF unit in the welding current socket (C1 "+") and lock by
turning to the right.
For special MIG/MAG applications such as welding cored wires for example, the WF unit
welding current plug is plugged into the "-" socket (E1) and locked by turning to the right.
•
Insert the control lead plug (7-pole) into the connection socket (G2) and lock (rear of machine).
•
Please see the wire feed unit operating instructions for further information.
5.9.1.2 Workpiece
lead
•
Insert cable plug of the workpiece lead into the welding current socket (C1 "+" or E1 "-"
depending on the application
)
and lock by turning to the right.
5.9.2 TRITON
400/500
In MIG/MAG welding, only the following operating and display elements on the welding
machine are active:
•
Digital display,
•
Welding voltage or current display changeover switch,
•
Characteristics rotary dial (chap.3, C3) and
•
Dynamic correction / choke effect rotary switch (chap.3, B3).
If only one torch (either TIG torch or MIG/MAG torch) is to be connected (e.g. infrequent
changing between processes),
the cooling units COOL 71U40 or COOL 71U41 can be used.
In this case, either TIG torches or MIG/MAG torches may be connected.
•
With MIG/MAG welding the WF unit should be connected to the cooling unit
•
For this application, the coolant supply line (blue) and return line (red) on the cooling unit
should be connected to the coolant supply line (blue) and return line (red) on the WF unit.
